I've compiled in support for readline (on Solaris) and rlcompleter works
fine from the shell. However, where the interpreter is started from
python-Mode for (GNU)(X-)Emacs it doesn't.
I've tried executing,
import readline
import rlcompleter
readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")
and it just beeps when I press tab to form completions.
Is there a fix?
Cheers,
Stuart
PS. From emacs, M-x describe-key [TAB] prints,
TAB runs the command indent-for-tab-command
which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `indent'.
(indent-for-tab-command &optional PREFIX-ARG)
t to under next indent point in previous nonblank line.
An indent point is a non-whitespace character following whitespace.
If the previous nonblank line has no indent points beyond the
column point starts at, `tab-to-tab-stop' is done instead.
